The process took 1 day. I interviewed at HSBC in Sep 2009
Interview
Interviewed for Account manager Graduate Program and once I said I graduated from US University that was the end of the interview. Unless, you graduated fro Canadian university don't bother applying for graduate programs in Canada. What a shame! Where is the diversity and the equal employment that every employer is advertising on theirs website.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at HSBC in Nov 2009
Interview
Within days of applying online, I was contacted. I was told that I would be called back for a phone interview a few days later. After the phone interview, I was told to come to an open house. At the open house, I took a tour of the facility. I also had two different interviews with two of the call center managers. Everyone seemed to enjoy their job. The very next day after the open house, I was called and offered the job. I was told within 48 hours, I needed to have my drug testing and fingerprinting done.

Interview
Asked me basic questions and tested Cantonese, English and Mandarin (Since the branch was located in a trilingual environment)
-why hsbc, why this post?
-what would u know when the costumer complains
-introduce yourself in mandarin
Overall easy and relaxed as this is a pretty junior post.
